And I am soooo ready!! This is the first sx that I am excited to be having! I'm floating on cloud 9 today. Plus, we get to go pick up our new van we bought today after work. SO, I'll be all set for a new me! Then I'll go home and pack my overnight bag and I'll be all set for tomorrow. They told me to be there at 7:30, but I'm sure I'll have to wait a bit for my sx time. YEAHH!!!

Hi MadysMom -

Congrats on your surgery tomorrow! I too am having surgery in the morning. I have to be there at 7:45 for a 9:30 surgery time. I am so excited that I probably won't get much sleep tonight.

You take care and I hope that all goes well with both of our surgeries!

Congratulations to you both. I hope it goes well for you. I see my last required doctor Monday, so I am hoping to have my surgery the end of April or early May.

My surgery went really well. I rolled into the operating room at 10:15 and walked out of the hospital at 12:15. Pretty good I would say.

There are 5 incisions on my belly, but only 1 really hurts. It is the longest of the 4 so I am assuming that is the port? The other 4 really don't hurt, even if you touch them with a little pressure. MY left shoulder is getting sore and I have some burping-gurgling gas pains but the Gas-X and walking seem to make it subside for a bit.

Actually I feel much better than I had thought. I have had 2 c-sections and this is a breeze compared to that!

MadysMom - I really hope that your surgery went well. Please post and let us know how it is going today!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
